In an endeavor to make children aware about personal safety, a session on “No Touch” was taken by the school counselor for the students of toddlers to grade 1, in the school. Through the session, they learnt that a good touch makes them feel happy, such as a hug from their parent and when a teacher pats them on the back for good behavior, while a bad touch is when the touch makes them feel uncomfortable and the touch is without their consent. They learnt to say no, walk out, and identify a trusted adult. They were told about the concept of safe circle and most of them could draw their individual safe circles after the session.
